Description

The new NRP course format requires the learner to complete the examination via the Internet prior to attending the skills simulation portion of the course.

The learner will need to study the newly released Textbook of Neonatal Resuscitation, 6th Edition prior to taking the on-line examination and attending the skills lab. Purchase the Textbook of Neonatal Resuscitation, 6th Edition via the American Academy of Pediatrics website at www.aap.org/bookstore. Copies of this textbook are also available for checkout in the Avera McKennan Medical Library (605) 322-8484 or the Wegner Health Science Information Center (605) 357-1400.
